The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

Coaching in Louisiana

“Seek opportunities to show you care. The smallest gestures often make the biggest difference.”       John Wooden
 
LSA is committed to providing as many educational opportunities and resources to youth coaches across the state to help improve the soccer environment for all of our kids. Coaching young players and helping them learn the life lessons best taught through participation in sports, teamwork, integrity, commitment, sportsmanship and trust, is both a privilege and an awesome responsibility. LSA is dedicated to helping all of our coaches be the best coach, mentor and role model they can be. Our kids deserve nothing less. 
 
Coaching Education
LSA is responsible for coordinating coaching education in Louisiana. The Coaching Education pages that follow, describe all of the coaching courses available and how your club can host a course.
 
Coaching Sessions 
LSA has also linked a number of training sessions and valuable information about coaching kids according to their age and cognitive development. There are dozens of sessions shared by our friends at US Youth Soccer and Massachusetts Youth Soccer.
 
Coaching Resources
LSA has compiled and routinely updates various videos, articles and teaching tools. These resources will help educate our coaches on sports injures, warm ups and drills, and coaching youth sports players. Our greatest coaching resources come from our friends in Massachusetts and Eastern Pennsylvania. Visit our Practice Plans page for seasons of practice plans that are age specific for all players and competitive levels.
